Fall Third
Syka Mercantile
The Syka Mercantile or the common goods shop, as Kame liked to call it as she couldn't really pronounce the official name in Common tongue, was not far from her rented bungalow. This settlement only had a few standing buildings, even less that had occupations or were in use so it was not very difficult to find. Besides the Founder that greeted the Myrian upon arrival gave her a good explanation of the few important buildings.
The place was much like the bungalows, raised and open made of thatch and light wood just like the rest of everything here. It was so obviously taken directly from the forest, but of course that made perfect sense. Use the environment to your advantage, and they had done so.
The walk from Kame's chosen bungalow (the farthest one from the actual 'city' center) to the common goods shop was only a few minutes along the beach. There were currently no pathways or cobbled roads, as expected. Though there was a good track forming in the dirt of the grassy upper beach from those living in the bungalows to the most popular building in the settlement.
When she entered the mercantile she was greeted with the bored face of a young woman about Kame's age. This human was paler than she with long, flowing brown hair and slenderness that moved like a fish, wriggling through the waves. The woman immediately perked up at the settlers appearance, apparently having been bored due to lack of activity prior to Kame's arrival.
She stood behind a small counter and surrounding her lining the walls of the building were lifted and titled boxes full of common goods for sale. The Myrian had a specific list of needs and so she set of right away to the walls, searching for the first item. She did not really want to talk to the woman but soon she was left with no choice.
"Hello!" The young woman cheered as she entered, Kame simply gave a polite nod before returning to her search. The girl skipped over to the huntress' side, looking over her shoulder at the goods Kame was peering at herself. What was she so interested in? Surely she knew her own wares? Kame moved on to the next set of goods, leaving the woman slightly behind.
The girl followed and then spoke again, "What are ya looking for?" Kame sighed inwardly. She had only been here for one day as the first day she spent talking with Founders and renting and unpacking her bungalow. The second day, today, she was focused on supplying herself and perhaps getting a better lay of the land.
Turning to the woman she tried to put on a polite face. The humans were already starting to get on Kame's nerves but she had to constantly remind herself that surviving in this place meant complacency, at least for now. She spoke in Common, slowly and thoughtfully, searching for the correct words. "Quill, ink, dish... and pot." Her accent was noticeable. Her request though was simple and the supplies seemed common enough. Kame knew most rarer items would not be found easily. A place like this relied mostly on the settlers actions. This was something she really liked about Syka. Kame was a very big supporter of 'do it yourself'.
